but the last discussions in this thread are not whether \mathbf or \boldsymbol is correct, but that we have two LFUNs one for \mathbf and second for \boldsymbol and two bindings CTRL+B and CTRL+ALT+B. current argumets i see: pros: - CTRL+B for \boldsymbol is more logically consistent cons: - more people want CTRL+B for bold + upright though - we change binding in sensitive area and only few people will read RELEASE-NOTES, you know. pavel
